COUNTY LINE SYRAH '14

NVWE Notes: This is a racy and distinctive Syrah with an “old world” feel. The nose is a zesty mix of red currant, cranberry, sour cherry, red raspberry, white pepper, Schezuan pepper, sumac berry, red rose, Thai basil, clove and jerk-spice scents. It is lean, fresh and just as complex on the palate, where flavors of dried cranberry, sumac berry and toasted grain are followed by supporting notes of fresh pomegranate, and Schezuan pepper. The finish is long and bright and food-worthy. Beautiful note with a fatty pork roast or grilled salmon, it should me even better in another eighteen to twenty-four months. 500 cases made.
